Sheffield is full of creativity and studying at The Sheffield College provides you with lots of opportunities for you to learn and exhibit work on your doorstep! Because the sector is so diverse, we work with you to develop your own style in design, fine art, fashion and whichever other creative areas you're interested in!

You will have access to our many art workshops or Mac design suites, and our tutors who also work in the industry will help you make some amazing connections. That could be at our Creative and Design Exhibition in Sheffield city centre, or in one of the many showcases and live projects the tutors arrange with some of the best employers in Sheffield.
